Step 3: Download Some Games While there are many places to download DOS games online, none is more complete than (which stands for Good Old Games). Just make sure that any games you download that are still copyright-protected are games you have purchased before in the past, to relieve yourself of any liability. Unfortunately, while many games on GoG are optimized for DosBox, they do not currently give users any way to filter games by their compatibility with DosBox, so a little research is necessary on the specific games you are interested in playing. There are a few lists of DosBox compatible games floating around, like and, but none of them seem to be fully extensive. Step 4: Copy the Game to Your Device Create a folder on the root of your device's SD card called Dos. Copy the game files that you downloaded into that folder. Step 6: Edit Your Game Profile Next, long-press your newly created game profile and select Edit Config.

I am pretty sure there are update programs from windows 98 to xp but I don't know if it could load in dosbox or not. I've tried every which way to install Windows.

This is where things can get a little complicated, as different devices and games will perform differently with different settings applied, so some experimentation may be necessary. Configure DosBox First off, we need to configure DosBox, so enter the DosBox Settings sub-menu. From here, start by tapping Memory Size and changing it to something appropriate for the game and your device.

For Master of Orion 2 on a Nexus 4, I set mine to 256 MB. For newer devices, feel free to crank this up to its highest value. You will need to look around in the game files and identify which is the game's EXE file.

In the case of Master of Orion 2, it is ORION2.exe. Configure Input & Screen Settings In the Edit Profile settings, you can configure your Input Preferences. These include Input Mode (which can be toggled between Joystick, Mouse, and Scroll input), Mouse Tracking, Sensitivity, and more. For a game like Master of Orion 2, I switched Mouse Tracking to Absolute, which allows you to click on the screen like a touch screen instead of moving the mouse around like a touch pad.

I changed the core from full to simple, and, though I haven't had much time to test it, the problem seems to have went away. Try messing around with the 'core=*' line in the DOSBox configuration file. I'm running DOSBox on Linux with a 1.5GHz P4, and it's still slower than a native installation with a 350MHz P2. Haken the path piano sheet. Note: (2007-05-27 08:04) ycavan Windows 98 SE installs, but has problems with regsrvr32 and rundll32 with a couple of ocx's. Upon boot into Windows, Explorer has problems with SHLWAPI.DLL and crashes, only to reload with the same error. EXPLORER executed an invalid instruction in module SHLWAPI.DLL at 0167:70be00cf.
